@richard Can you please fix this extension"[Https://github.com/riknoll/small-tilemaps](https://github.com/riknoll/small-tilemaps)". It is not working. I can not open the editor. ---

the reason i haven’t updated that extension is because nobody should use it! you can now get 8x8 tilemaps from the arcade-tile-util extension and that’s what you should use in new projects. i’ll take a look at fixing this for old projects, but please do not use it in new projects! use arcade-tile-util instead! ---

@richard one of my older MakeCode Arcade projects depends on this extension. In recent Arcade versions the [Https://github.com/riknoll/small-tilemaps](https://github.com/riknoll/small-tilemaps) extensions editor no longer opens, so I can’t view or copy the project’s tilemaps into a newer extension which you gave. **What happens:** Opening the project tryworks, buting to open a tilemap fails to load / shows a blank panel. **What I expected:** The tilemap editor opens so I can view and copy them to the new extension. **Request:** - Could you update the extension to work with the current Arcade, or advise the minimal changes needed so we can copy everything to the new extension?. Thanks a lot! ---
